Match Report | The Telford side made a strong start to the game and were 4 – 0 within 13 minutes with two of the goals coming from special guest Linda Royston. This spurred WATS into bringing on their secret weapon – Jas Tutt – who scored two goals in rapid succession. Telford struck back immediately and whilst Linda Royston was taking a well-deserved break, super sub Gilly Cross slotted home a cross from the right. The Telford side went into the break leading 6 – 2 and it was hard to see how the final result would be anything other than a home win. WATS, however, had other ideas and whilst Telford and Wrekin failed to score in the second half the away side scored four goals (two from Tutt) resulting in a final score of 6 – 6 and the tension and excitement of a penalty shoot-out! With some great saves from Muppet it all came down to the final penalty, taken by captain Sandra Pattinson. ‘I honestly thought it would all be over by then and I wouldn’t have to take one’ said Sandra after scoring to clinch the tie 3 – 2 on penalties! The team have been rewarded with an away tie on Sunday 12th January at Stratford (upon Avon). |
